you can't find me, I'm to quick
Scurry hurry, they'll hear you for sure
Don't worry, calm down. My heart is racing.
Take a breath, heave a sigh, don't ruffle your fur.

Step out into the open?
Yeah right, I'm hiding in the trees.
Are you nuts? Going out there is suicide.
I'm eating my grass, now leave me alone please.

I look up, I think I heard something.
No it must be the wind. who could be there?
Nothing, nothing is there, just relax.
Shesh you're more timid than a hare.

Why am I talking to myself as if I'm someone else?
I must be losing my head, haha, right right.
Walk out into the open now, look around for just a bit.
Listen to a twig break, and once again out of sight.

Who am I? My name is Itorik.
No I'm not named after anything special
just my uncle who died in the jaws of a cat.
Kind of creepy right. surviving is essential.

Please, I beg, don't eat me so.
I don't mean to become friend or foe
I'm just on my way, don't hurt me please.
I'm nasty and icky and filled with flees.
I'm shorter than you, by a lot you see.
Might length is of 20, my weight is of 3.
Don't step on me, don't bite me, but converse.
Maybe something small, and then we shall disperse.

Upon night wings, sing with me? Maybe
Just don't keep me up, I'll be crabby.
